💬 What Parents Say
- Visit during fall months for a peaceful, less crowded experience. The park maintains beautiful conditions and nostalgic boardwalk atmosphere even when it's not peak beach season.
- Bring water shoes or sandals - reviewers noted the beach has small rocks that can be uncomfortable underfoot. The sandy bottom can also make walking difficult.
- The bathrooms are exceptionally clean and well-maintained, but there may be limited shower availability during busy times. Plan accordingly or arrive early to avoid long waits, especially if you need to rinse off before leaving.
- Young children will love the dedicated kids area with kiddie rides, splash pad, and mini golf. The presence of lifeguards on the beach provides added safety, making it family-friendly for non-strong swimmers.
- Water conditions vary - the water can be cold and contain seaweed/sediment. Plan to gradually acclimate to the water temperature and consider visiting on warmer days for a more comfortable swimming experience.
